delinquent taxes

Real Estate Taxes become delinquent on March 1st of each year. After March 1st, interest charges begin accruing on the base tax balance at 1.5% per month or 18% per annum. Payments made on delinquent taxes are first applied to charges, then to the base tax amount. Unpaid delinquent taxes may be subject to lawsuit, incurring court costs, attorney and miscellaneous fees, and eventual sale of the property.​
